Hello friends! There has been so much activity in and around MSA these days! Not only have we been developing new videos that are getting thousands of views, we are wrapping up our first album! It looks to be 9 original songs and one bonus record. We’ve also established a Team MSA Fortnite LiveStream that goes up twice a week. On a community note, Fox 5 Atlanta filmed their Wednesday’s Child segment with us recently and we’ve hosted some amazing kids through our partnership with The Decatur Education Foundation in our weekend workshops.

If you have or know kids that LOVE to play ROBLOX, show them our first episode of “Taco TV Gamers”, a gamers VLOG with the kids using screen capture, special effects, funny clips, voice overs and animations to give their fans comic delivery, tips and tricks on many of the games in the ROBLOX universe. We also produced a commercial for a talk show in development called “The Clover and Greta Show”.

A First Time for Everything

What a treat it was to host our first year of afternoon enrichment and Summer K.A.M.P. The majority of our kids during the summer break were from families who have never experienced our program and the kids came ready to work hard! Daily, we built sets, wrote scripts, filmed, edited, composed scores and sound effects, produced voice-overs, applied special effects or just dreamed a little. Starting at the beginning of each week with nothing, and ending with some amazing little ideas coming to life was fantastic. We are thankful for the positive feedback and look forward to serving you all in the Fall!

Summer K.A.M.P. Creations

Here are some of the amazing videos created by our K.A.M.P. kids this summer:

Week 1 Stop Motion “The Bounty Hunters”

Week 2 Filmmaking “The Ghosts Band”

Week 3 Music Video Production Lip-sync video of “Ride” by Twenty One Pilots

Week 4 Stop Motion Animation “The Flame of Light”

Week 5 Filmmaking “The Missing”

Week 6 Music Video Production Lip-sync Video of “River” by Bishop Briggs

Filmmaking Summer K.A.M.P. Week 2

A Success! In our first Filmmaking Summer K.A.M.P. session, the kids wrote the script, conceptualized the visuals, recorded voice-overs, composed music, filmed, added lighting, edited video, created an original song and worked on a score for this movie. We closed with a Wrap Party at Butter & Cream and some party time at Decatur Rec!

It is important that kids learn how to co-create their world, and not compete for it. Their natural inclination is to imagine. It is amazing what can happen when kids are taught how to organize great ideas into tangible creations! Some great tools, a few guiding principles and LITTLE bit of time, they can do anything!

We are sponsoring kids in our after school! We have been very fortunate to find support and guidance from small businesses, non profits, an awesome local bank and individuals alike. Please check out our GoFundMe Page and donate what you can to sponsor a child who needs it!

Our new, stop-motion/live-action/green-screen kid-made masterpiece is here! “The Key of Cupcakes”! The kids spent a LOT of time working on this. Coming up with concepts, making their own backgrounds, filming, editing, moving legos, recording voice-overs and learning how to make music and apply to a film. Here it is!
